Dexter Dalwood, 'The Apartment (after Delacroix) IV', 2012

Item Type:	Exhibition
Creators:	Dalwood, D
Abstract:	'The Apartment (after Delacroix)', a series of four prints, take as their starting point Eugène Delacroix’s painting, 'Femmes d’Alger dans leur appartement', 1834, which Picasso also used as inspiration for a set of prints in the 1950s. In Dalwood’s series of screenprints, the women are no longer in the apartment and the four images follow a narrative from night through to dawn and finally to an explosion. Dalwood is reinterpereting the genre of History Painting for a contemporary audience.
